IMPORTANT ! Our last day of the Winter 22/23 Season will be Saturday April, 8th; we will be closed until Thursday May 25th, 2023. Thank you for a successful season!

A casual, yet sophisticated dining experience in a rustic Vermont setting & urban chic atmosphere. Our menu is similar to the State of Vermont....eclectic & different!
The restaurant is named after the iconic fire tower that sits atop Stratton Mountain where multi generations of skiers and riders made the hike to the summit.
Nestled in the heart of Stratton Village we combine the spirit of a traditional tavern with upscale modern materials we take great pride in our unique bar design.
We offer Vermont craft beer and carefully curated cocktail selections with an extensive wine list.

    First and most importantly our server was fantastic very friendly. The hostess was very unfriendly and acted like she cared less that we were there. Food runners were nice. I had the Wagyu burger ordered medium rare and it was very well done dried out and very tough, did not eat much of it. Husbands pork chop sounded delicious on the menu but it too was over cooked and dried out. Gnocchi was delicious. $17 for a child’s pizza was outrageous. Pasta primavera was just ok. Drinks were good coconut shrimp we ok Guinness Brown Bread overpriced. I would have expected so much more for a $300 + meal. Not worth it

    Overall we had a great experience. We had a party of 6 and service was above average. Food was really good and had some special flares. Nice spot for a cocktail and meet up with friends.

    Great food, unique flavorful menu items, not typical run of the mill selection. My daughter had the Filet au Poivre medium, and I had Seared chicken breast. It took a bit of time, however, both dishes came prepared just right, juicy and flavorful. Clearly they were not microwaved and the person cooking them knew what they were doing. As for prices, they are not cheap, but par for the course considering typical higher end resort prices for everything. I can say that food didn't disappoint and the service was spot on.

    We opted for a high top table in the bar area, so it was somewhat noisy but not in a bad way. Ahi tuna nachos app was fantastic. Perfectly cooked filet, and our awesome waiter recommended a good wine to go with it. A bit pricey, but it is Stratton so we expected that

    Hostess was short and un-inviting. Server was fantastic! Shared several plates and food was overall good except ramen noodles were raw. $20 for cornbread. Pretty dingy walk to bathroom and extremely overpriced.

    The food and service was very good despite the fact that the restaurant was crowded due to it being a holiday week. While the prices are high, the location near the lodging at Stratton Mountain resort makes it a very convenient place to eat.

    Seated right away with a reservation which I had to make a month in advance of our trip. Menu has solid options for kids and adults. Steak cooked to temp perfectly. Everything in stratton is pricey but we’re from NYC so it’s about on par with eating out there. I have food allergies and the waitress was well versed and happy to accommodate my needs. In and out in an hour with dessert 🤘🏼

    Our group of 6 shared a bunch of appetizers and flatbreads. Everything was great. It looks like the menu was revamped since the pandemic and the items are a great example of “elevated” bar food.

    Glad the Ahi Nachos and Margarita Flatbread with prosciutto still on the menu and good as always. My husband's Garden Salad seemed to be lacking in ingredients for the price, not much in it. Pleasant atmosphere for our party of 8 in Main Dining Room at the big farm table, waiter was excellent!
